terraformer
A modular JavaScript toolkit for geographic data processing, format conversion, and spatial operations.
What is terraformer?
Terraformer is a JavaScript geographic toolkit that provides utilities for processing geometry, performing spatial operations, and converting between common geospatial data formats like GeoJSON, ArcGIS JSON, and WKT. It solves the problem of handling geographic data in web and Node.js applications by offering lightweight, modular functions for common geospatial tasks.
Developers building mapping applications, geospatial data pipelines, or GIS tools who need to manipulate and convert geographic data formats in JavaScript environments.
Developers choose Terraformer for its modular design that reduces bundle size, its focus on raw GeoJSON interoperability, and its straightforward API for spatial operations without the overhead of complex primitives.
